The Thackray Birth Stories project

Every birth story is unique and customs change through the ages and from place to place. Do you have a story that you'd like to share? Thackray Medical Museum is working together with the University of Leeds to collect and share the stories of Leeds residents.

The Thackray Birth Stories project aims to bring together researchers from the University of Leeds, curators from the Thackray Medical Museum and local parents and visitors to explore stories of childbirth and think about how the museum should tell those stories.
